Fettercairn 16 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Grilled pineapple and vanilla lead a generous tropical aroma, with sugared almond and soft baking spice adding depth. Passion fruit and mango carry onto the palate, joined by rich honey, Turkish delight and a warm touch of cassia. The finish turns to mandarin, poached pear and light cacao, ending with the soft spice of ginger cake. Full-flavoured yet poised, it can be served neat or with water added gradually.
Fettercairn 12 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Vanilla and ripe pear open the aroma, framed by soft baking spice and a warm honeyed tone. The palate is bright and generous, moving through nectarine and tropical fruit with a smooth, rounded texture. Sultana brings gentle dried-fruit depth before roasted coffee and black toffee shape the finish. The result is approachable but composed, with fruit and subtle roast in balance. Serve neat or add a few drops of water.
Estancia Distillery Raicilla
Cracked black pepper and sweet green herbs lead a vivid, savoury aroma, lifted by hibiscus and bright citrus zest. The palate is floral and earthy, with pineapple skin and beach plum bringing tart fruit around a gently lactic, goat-cheese note. Roasted agave and quiet mineral depth hold the flavours together, while the finish remains dry, herbal and persistent. Serve neat in a copita, with water alongside, to let the aromatic detail unfold.
Esquimalt Vino Miele Limoncello
Fresh lemon peel opens with vivid citrus oils and a clean, aromatic lift. British Columbia honey adds a rounded, lightly floral sweetness, while the mead base gives the palate a supple texture and more depth than a simple sugar syrup. Bright acidity keeps the finish refreshing rather than heavy, with lemon zest lingering over a soft honeyed note. Serve thoroughly chilled, pour over ice, or lengthen with soda for a crisp after-dinner drink.
El Jolgorio Todos Santos Arroqueño Mezcal
Grapefruit opens the aroma with a vivid citrus lift, followed by eucalyptus and delicate floral notes. The palate is concentrated yet finely drawn, moving from juicy citrus into cool herbs, earthy agave and a controlled ribbon of smoke. A firm mineral structure keeps the profile dry and precise, while the finish lingers with floral smoke and fresh grapefruit peel. Serve neat in a copita and give it a few minutes to open.
El Jolgorio Sierrudo Mezcal
Cooked agave and fresh grass lead the aroma, with dark cacao, lime peel and a fine thread of white smoke adding depth. The palate is savoury and composed, bringing white pepper and cardamom into an earthy mineral frame. Bright citrus keeps the richness in balance, while measured smoke and gentle spice carry through a long, dry finish. Serve neat in a copita and allow the aromatics time to unfold.
El Jolgorio Coyote Ancestral Mezcal
Roasted agave and warm clay lead the aroma, followed by fresh lime, salt, pepper and a restrained leather note. The palate is earthy and precise, combining bright citrus with savoury mineral depth and measured smoke. Richness builds without obscuring the agave, and the finish remains dry, structured and persistent. Serve neat in a copita and allow a few minutes for the aromatics to open.
Dolin Bitter de Chambéry
Bitter orange leads with a fragrant citrus-peel note, followed by gentian, cinchona and layered alpine herbs. The palate balances measured sweetness with a clean, persistent bitterness, remaining lighter and more delicate than many dark red aperitifs. A gently spicy, botanical finish keeps it refreshing. Serve over ice with orange, lengthen with soda, or use as the bitter element in a spritz or aperitivo cocktail.
Disaronno Originale Amaretto 375 mL
Toasted almond and marzipan lead a rich, aromatic nose, followed by vanilla, caramel and a subtle thread of anise. The palate is smooth and rounded, balancing candied almond sweetness with deeper notes of brown butter and brûléed sugar. A faint red-apple accent brings lift to the lingering finish. Serve over ice, lengthen with citrus, or use in an Amaretto Sour or spirit-forward cocktail.
Cynar Artichoke Aperitif 1 L
Aromatic herbs and a dark vegetal note lead into a rounded bittersweet palate. Artichoke brings earthy depth rather than a literal vegetable flavour, while caramel adds softness around the firmer herbal bitterness. The finish is woody, gently spicy and persistent. Serve over ice with orange, lengthen with soda or tonic, or use it to bring deeper savoury character to an aperitivo cocktail.
Cragganmore 12 Year Old Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Sweet floral aromas open with riverside herbs, honey and vanilla. The palate is firm and rounded, led by malt with sandalwood and a measured thread of sweet smoke. Rich and complex without excessive weight, it gathers gentle sweetness as it develops. The finish is long, malt-driven and lightly smoky. Serve neat, over ice or with a small splash of water to open the aromatics.
Christian Drouin Blanche de Normandie Apple Brandy
Fresh apple and pear aromas open with a clear orchard-fruit character. The palate is crisp and expressive, moving from ripe fruit toward apple peel, gentle spice and a lightly warming finish. Its clean, unaged style keeps the fruit vivid and direct rather than oak-driven. Serve lightly chilled as a digestif, or use it in cocktails where fresh apple flavour and aromatic lift are welcome.
Chartreuse Yellow
Fresh herbal aromas lead with citrus, anise and warm turmeric-like spice. The palate is soft and rounded, balancing measured sweetness with floral notes and a gently bitter botanical edge. It is aromatic and layered without the force of a more intensely vegetal herbal liqueur, allowing the citrus and spice to remain clear through the finish. Serve well chilled, over ice or in a restrained spirit-forward cocktail.
Chartreuse Liqueur of the 9th Centenary
A powerful herbal core is softened by measured sweetness and a delicate floral lift. The palate sits between the brighter, sweeter style of yellow herbal liqueur and the more intense vegetal depth associated with green expressions, adding layered spice and fresh alpine character. Rich yet balanced, it finishes long, aromatic and gently warming. Serve chilled, over ice or in a restrained spirit-forward cocktail.
Cazcanes No. 9 Blanco High Proof Tequila
Sweet cooked agave leads with floral lift, fresh citrus and a clear peppery edge. The palate is rich and concentrated, with subtle minerality keeping the sweetness precise.

Serve neat or with a little water.

Tequila Cascahuin Plata 48 Blanco
Cooked agave leads with mint, cilantro and fresh herbs, followed by pepper and a clear mineral edge.

Cardamom and a touch of underripe banana add complexity without softening the dry-land character. The finish is weighty, peppery and persistent. Serve neat.
Cardhu Special Cask Reserve Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
